Question: 20 CertyIQ
You intend to make use of Azure Artifacts to share packages that you wrote, tested, validated, and deployed.
You want to use a solitary feed to release several builds of each package. You have to make sure that the release
of packages that are in development is restricted.
Which of the following actions should you take?

A. You should make use of static code analysis.

B. You should make use of views.
C. You should make use of dynamic code analysis.
D. You should make use of upstream sources.

Answer: B

Explanation:

Feed views enable developers to share a subset of package-versions with their consumers. A common use of
feed views is to share package versions that have been tested and validated but hold back on packages that
are still under development and/or didn't meet a certain quality bar.

Feed views and upstream sources are designed to work together to provide an enterprise-level solution to
share and consume packages. In order for other Azure Artifacts feeds to use your feed as an upstream source,
you must set your feed's visibility to members of your organization, or members of your Azure Active
Directory, depending on your scenario. If you choose the latter, all people in your organization will be able to
access your feed, and all feeds in your organization and other organizations associated with the same Azure
Active Directory tenant will be able to upstream to your feed.

B. an Azure Monitor alert that has a dynamic threshold
C. an Azure Monitor alert that has a static threshold
D. the Azure Monitor autoscale settings
E. an Azure Monitor alert that uses an action group that has an email action

Answer: AB

Explanation:
B: Metric Alert with Dynamic Thresholds detection leverages advanced machine learning (ML) to learn
metrics' historical behavior, identify patterns and anomalies that indicate possible service issues. It provides
support of both a simple UI and operations at scale by allowing users to configure alert rules through the
Azure
Resource Manager API, in a fully automated manner.
A: You can use Azure Monitor to monitor base-level metrics and logs for most services in Azure. You can call
Azure Automation runbooks by using action groups or by using classic alerts to automate tasks based on
alerts.

You have a Microsoft ASP.NET Core web app in Azure that is accessed worldwide.
You need to run a URL ping test once every five minutes and create an alert when the web app is unavailable from
specific Azure regions. The solution must minimize development time.
What should you do?

A. Create an Azure Monitor Availability metric and alert.

B. Create an Azure Application Insights availability test and alert.
C. Write an Azure function and deploy the function to the specific regions.
D. Create an Azure Service Health alert for the specific regions.

Answer: B

Explanation:
There are three types of Application Insights availability tests:
URL ping test: a simple test that you can create in the Azure portal.
 ✑ Multi-step web test
✑ Custom Track Availability Tests
Note: After you've deployed your web app/website, you can set up recurring tests to monitor availability and
responsiveness. Azure Application Insights sends web requests to your application at regular intervals from
points around the world. It can alert you if your application isn't responding, or if it responds too slowly.
You can set up availability tests for any HTTP or HTTPS endpoint that is accessible from the public internet.
You don't have to make any changes to the website you're testing. In fact, it doesn't even have to be a site you
own. You can test the availability of a REST API that your service depends on.

Question: 65 CertyIQ
Your company has multiple microservices-based apps that use the following tracing libraries:

• OpenTelemetry
• OpenCensus
• OpenTracing
• Honeycomb
• Jaeger

The company purchases an Azure subscription and implements Application Insights in Azure Monitor.

You plan to centralize distributed tracing for the apps.

You need to identify which libraries can integrate directly with Application Insights.

Which two libraries should you identify? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.

NOTE: Each correct solution is worth one point.

A. Honeycomb
B. OpenTracing
C. Jaeger
D. OpenTelemtry
E. OpenCensus

Answer: DE

Explanation:

Application Insights now supports distributed tracing through OpenTelemetry. OpenTelemetry provides a
vendor-neutral instrumentation to send traces, metrics, and logs to Application Insights. Initially, the
OpenTelemetry community took on distributed tracing.

In addition to the Application Insights SDKs, Application Insights also supports distributed tracing through
OpenCensus. OpenCensus is an open-source, vendor-agnostic, single distribution of libraries to provide
metrics collection and distributed tracing for services.

Question: 66 CertyIQ
You have an Azure web app named webapp1 that uses the .NET Core runtime stack. You have an Azure Application
Insights resource named AppInsights1. Webapp1 sends telemetry data to AppInsights1.

You need to ensure that webapp1 sends the telemetry data at a fixed sampling rate.

What should you do?

A. From the code repository of webapp1, modify the ApplicationInsights.config file.

B. From the code repository of webapp1, modify the Startup.cs file.
C. From AppInsights1, modify the Usage and estimated costs settings.
D. From AppInsights1, configure the Continuous export settings.

Answer: B

Explanation:

The question is not asking how you can change the rate at which Application Insights consumes the telemetry
data - therefore, C and D cannot be correct. We are left with A and B as possible answers, but (as Azure Jobs
Till Retire points out) answer A can't be correct, so B must be the correct answer.

You need to configure App1 to use AI1.

Which file should you modify?

A.appsettings.json
B.launchSettings.json
C.startup.cs
D.project.json

Answer: C

Explanation:

Answer:C. startup.csIn a typical .NET application, such as App1, the startup.cs file contains the configuration
and initialization code for the application. This file is responsible for configuring various services and
middleware during the application's startup.To enable and configure Application Insights, you would modify
the startup.cs file and add the necessary code to set up Application Insights for your app. This typically

You have an Azure subscription that contains multiple Azure services.
You need to send an SMS alert when scheduled maintenance is planned for the Azure services.
Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

A. Enable Azure Security Center.

B. Create and configure an Azure Monitor alert rule.
C. Create an Azure Service Health alert.
D. Create and configure an action group.

Answer: CD

Explanation:
Creating planned maintenance alerts using Azure Service Health
1. Login into the Azure portal and select Service Health.
2. Select Health alerts followed by + Create service health alert from the top of the window on the right.
3. In the Edit Alert blade, give the alert a Name, Description, check the subscription is correct and choose a
resource group.
4. The next step is to work through the Criteria section choosing which services, regions and types of event
alerts should be monitored. For the purpose of this article all services and regions have been checked but only
planned maintenance events.
5. Select or create an Action group. (An Action group is a group of actions to be taken, should an event be
logged.)
6. Configure the actions to be taken. We are only configuring an email alert, so we first name the action, then
chose Email/SMS/Push/Voice from the drop down list.
Note: Azure Service Health can be used to view problems with Azure services that may impact any of your
cloud services. Service Health monitors three types of health event:
Service issues " Azure services that are currently experiencing problems
Planned maintenance " Any known future maintenance that may affect the availability of your services
Health advisories " Changes in services, for example, deprecated features or exceeded quota usage.

You configure Azure Application Insights and the shared service plan tier for a web app.
You enable Smart Detection.
You confirm that standard metrics are visible in the logs, but when you test a failure, you do not receive a Smart
Detection notification.
What prevents the Smart Detection notification from being sent?

A. You must enable the Snapshot Debugger for the web app.
B. Smart Detection uses the first 24 hours to establish the normal behavior of the web app.
C. The web app is configured to use the shared service plan tier.
D. You must restart the web app before Smart Detection is enabled.

Answer: B

Explanation:
After setting up Application Insights for your project, and if your app generates a certain minimum amount of
data, Smart Detection of failure anomalies takes 24 hours to learn the normal behavior of your app, before it is
switched on and can send alerts.

Box 1: Scrum -
Choose Scrum when your team practices Scrum. This process works great if you want to track product
backlog items (PBIs) and bugs on the Kanban board, or break PBIs and bugs down into tasks on the taskboard.
 Box 2: Agile -
Choose Agile when your team uses Agile planning methods, including Scrum, and tracks development and
test activities separately. This process works great if you want to track user stories and (optionally) bugs on
the Kanban board, or track bugs and tasks on the taskboard.

Box 3: CMMI -
Choose CMMI when your team follows more formal project methods that require a framework for process
improvement and an auditable record of decisions. With this process, you can track requirements, change
requests, risks, and reviews.
